For registration of agricultural pesticides, the risks for humans, animals, and the environment must be determined. The risk assessment is based on an appraisal of the levels of exposure and the hazards of the active substance(s) in the plant protection product, that is, the agricultural pesticide. Funded by the European Commission (AIR3 CT93-1370), the EUROPOEM database has been developed by a group of experts, representing governments, industry, and academia. The currently available exposure database reflects exposure to operators (mixer/loaders and applicators). The EUROPOEM approach is based on a harmonized protocol for conduct of field studies of operator exposure (presently published as an Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development [OECD] Guidance Document) and a tiered approach to exposure and risk assessment. The database is constructed from exposure data obtained in representative field studies. These field studies are considered according to criteria reflecting the quality of documentation, study design, adequate methodology, number of replicates, and QA/QC elements, for use of the inhalation and dermal exposure data. The resulting exposure data were combined according to comparable use scenarios. From the resulting databases typical surrogate potential exposure values have been obtained, which are determined by their use for either acute or chronic health effects, and the size of the database. For large databases (over 50-100 data points), from many different field studies (10 or more), the 75th percentile is taken if the exposure is considered leading to chronic effects. For smaller databases, a more conservative 90th percentile is taken as surrogate value, or none at all for very small databases (15-20 or less data points from 3 or less different field studies). The choice for the 75th percentile is based on the assumed or observed lognormal distribution of the exposure data, as being the most relevant typical value for long-term effects, since the 75th percentile of log-normal distributions is nominally very similar to a calculated arithmetic mean (AM). The AM, as such however, is irrelevant for log-normal distributions. 相似文献

Background Agriculture is one of the most hazardous sectors in both developing and industrialized countries. Agricultural workers suffer
markedly higher rates of accidents and fatal injuries than other workers, with very few resources available for compensation.
One of the difficulties in dealing with agriculture is that it is a very complex and heterogeneous sector. Due to inadequate
and non-standardized recording and notification systems, official data on the incidence of agricultural occupational accidents
and diseases are imprecise, notoriously underestimated, unsatisfactory and inadequate as an indicator for measuring the effect
of interventions.
Aim To explore the peculiarities of data reporting systems among agricultural sector focusing on the Italian situation.
Results and conclusion In recent decades far-reaching national efforts in the sector of occupational safety and health have led to redefinitions
and shifts in national policies and priorities, with wide-scale involvement of public and social bodies, field experts, companies,
trade unions, public and private insurance agencies. Even so, compared to workers in other sectors, agricultural workers are
still under-protected. Occupational safety and health in agriculture need to be addressed with a well-defined strategy and
must be integrated into a rural development policy. Integration into the primary health care structure is strongly recommended. 相似文献

Dermal exposure to industrial chemicals during work is of major concern in the risk assessment of chemicals. Current approaches in procedures for European legislation are not based on experimental data on dermal exposures in workplaces because these are lacking. A large project, with four interrelated work parts, was funded by the European Commission (DG Research) in order to overcome large parts of this problem. The 4 year project is now in its final year and an overview is given of an important part of the project: the development of a risk assessment and risk management toolkit for dermal exposure. Five other papers in this issue deal with various aspects of this development. 相似文献

The present document, which describes recommended standardized procedures, aims to assist individual investigators plan a study on the effects of industrial chemicals on the auditory system, collect and analyze environmental and hearing sensitivity data that are accurate and comparable to data acquired by others. This draft document is currently being reviewed by the NoiseChem Research Group. In this peer review stage we are currently accepting critiques and suggestions to this proposal. Investigations on the aforementioned topic are necessary since there is strong evidence that occupational hearing loss may be caused not only by noise but also by exposure to certain chemicals in the work environment. Since some industrial chemicals are known to be ototoxic, it is plausible to expect that if these chemicals occurred in high enough concentrations in the workplace they could affect hearing. Laboratory studies have yielded a finding not expected, namely that when simultaneous exposure to noise and chemicals occur, the hearing loss observed was greater than the expected hearing loss from noise added to the expected hearing loss from the chemical. If this synergism is verified in humans, then changes will be required in the limits that are set for occupational hazards in order to prevent occupational hearing loss. 相似文献

The Dutch procedure for standard setting for occupational exposure to chemicals, just like the European Union (EU) procedure, is characterized by an organizational separation between considerations of health on the one side, and of technology, economics, and policy on the other side. Health considerations form the basis for numerical guidelines. These guidelines are next combined with technical-economical considerations. Standards are then proposed, and are finally set by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment. An analysis of this procedure might be of relevance to the US, where other procedures are used and criticized. In this article we focus on the first stage of the standard-setting procedure. In this stage, the Dutch Expert Committee on Occupational Standards (DECOS) drafts a criteria document in which a health-based guideline is proposed. The drafting is based on a set of starting points for assessing toxicity. We raise the questions, “Does DECOS limit itself only to health considerations? And if not, what are the consequences of such a situation?” We discuss DECOS' starting points and analyze the relationships between those starting points, and then explore eight criteria documents where DECOS was considering reproductive risks as a possible critical effect. For various reasons, it will be concluded that the starting points leave much interpretative space, and that this space is widened further by the manner in which DECOS utilizes it. This is especially true in situations involving sex-specific risks and uncertainties in knowledge. Consequently, even at the first stage, where health considerations alone are intended to play a role, there is much room for other than health-related factors to influence decision making, although it is unavoidable that some interpretative space will remain. We argue that separating the various types of consideration should not be abandoned. Rather, through adjustments in the starting points and aspects of the procedure, clarity should be guaranteed about the way the interpretative space is being employed. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Paired-ion reversed-phase liquid chromatography was applied to the problem of determining the exposure of chemical workers to aerosols of chemical intermediates in the production of fabric brighteners, specifically: 4,4'-diaminostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, disodium salt (DAS), 4,4'-dinitrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, disodium salt (DNS), and paranitrotoluene sulfonic acid, sodium salt (PNTSA), which are all light-sensitive ionic compounds. Personal samples were collected on Teflon-coated glass fiber filters through which air was drawn at 1.7 Lpm. DAS, DNS and PNTSA were desorbed quantitatively in water from the filters. Tetrabutylammonium phosphate served as the ion-pairing reagent to these anions and was added to the eluent solutions. The samples were separated on an octadecylsilyl column with a methanol/water gradient. These three compounds eluted with good separation in 15 min. Monitoring absorbance of light at 254 nm, one can easily obtain detection limits of 2 micrograms/mL or less. Air concentrations of 0.02 mg/m3 were measured readily by personal sampling. Airborne exposures in this facility were found to range from nondetectable levels up to 60 micrograms/m3 DAS. A fixed high volume sampler collected between 0.2 and 2 micrograms/m3 each of DAS, DNS and PNTSA. The enclosure of the reactors and transport of materials in solution or as a slurry minimize exposure. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: RISKOFDERM is a research project whose aim is to develop instruments to assess and manage occupational dermal exposure to chemical substances. METHODS: The research, funded by the European Commission, involves 15 Institutes from 10 member countries; it is a continuation of the Dermal Exposure Network experience and consists of four interrelated parts. The first phase (Qualitative survey) assumed that dermal exposure can be extrapolated from one compound to another when it is task-based: therefore six Dermal Exposure Operation units (DEOu) were defined that lead back to the variety of occupational dermal exposure conditions and an extensive Questionnaire was developed for on-site surveys to perform standard observations in selected working situations (scenarios). RESULTS: The Italian group, participating in the research, obtained a set of observations relating to two "scenarios" in different working sectors: asphalt, ceramic and pottery workers, spectacle decorators and paint production: the aim was to verify the validity of the methodology in assessing the risk of percutaneous absorption, time, frequency and extension of skin exposure. CONCLUSIONS: From the observations made it was shown that the perception of risk was poor; it is necessary to rationalise work organization, and train and inform the employees on the correct use of personal protection devices. 相似文献

A system has been developed for the computer handling of industrial hygiene data in the Michigan Division of Dow Chemical U.S.A. With the implementation of this system, future epidemiological studies might be completed in a few weeks as opposed to months when done menually. The system is capable of providing lists, either current or historical, of the chemicals used in a particular building; and all the available exposure data for specific employees can be obtained throughout their entire periods of employment. The system is also capable of summarizing all available exposure information for a given chemical. The heart of the chemical exposure data system lies in the record content. Each record contains: 1. Chemical identification number; 2. Employee number; 3. Job classification number; 4. Department index number; 5. Data type code; 6. Exposure data; 7. Units code; 8. Date; 9. Building number and 10. Reference. A detailed discussion of each of these parameters is contained in the text. 相似文献
